Subject: ppdev: ppdev_init: do not return zero in case of failure
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9a32bb39d6a48d435135695763e5e4a06652eeda;p=linux-beck.git

ppdev: ppdev_init: do not return zero in case of failure

Error handling of parport_register_driver() in ppdev_init()
is broken because it deallocates all resources but still
returns zero.

Currently parport_register_driver() always succeeds.
Nevertheless it is worth to fix the issue.
